Those who are sensitive often feel weak. Those who feel strong are often insensitive.

Some people are sensitive to themselves but insensitive to others . They often feel the others are “bad guys.”

Those who are sensitive to others but not to themselves often end up feeling Poor me.

Some conclude it’s better not to be sensitive, because sensitivity brings pain. They shut off. But mind you, if you are not sensitive, you will lose all the finer things in life too – intuition, beauty and ecstasy of love.

Insensitive people usually do not recognize their weakness .And those who are sensitive do not recognize that their sensitivity is their strength .

5 Responses to “Be both SENSITIVE & STRONG”

Indeed it is easier said than done hence the repetition by the wise and the necessity to continue the practice. To practise here is not to mean to mimic this quality but rather to identify what disallows us to be such a way; hence, when identified, this quality becomes natural, rather than one who ‘tries’ to be.

That is how the mind works, swinging from one end of the pendulum to the other end; seldom, hardly in its middle – always, always, either this, or that; yet the truth is that it is neither this not that. Neither are you, until you identify with it.

Expressions in Writing

The Buddha said,

“Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.”

And so, there is no need to believe any of the writings herein. For what is written are merely words expressed from intimate experiences on a journey - awakening to the falseness in the search for Truth.

May it, or may it not - resonate with you ~ whichever that serves your highest good.

Namaste.
